Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. today announced that Silent Hill®:
Homecoming, the latest iteration in the popular survival horror series, has

PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system. In addition, Windows PC gamers can

Silent Hill: Homecoming takes
players deeper into the tormented history of the town and reveals the evil that
surrounds Toluca Lake. The story follows Alex Shepherd, who returns to his
hometown of Shepherd's Glen to investigate the mysterious disappearance of his
brother. On his quest, Alex discovers eerie occurrences taking place around
town. As Alex, players investigate the mystery behind his nightmares and
maintain his grip on reality, unraveling a tale that takes him from his
childhood home to the fog-shrouded streets of Silent Hill. In the end, Alex must
face the darkest horrors of his soul to confront the evil that has taken his
brother.

Using the incredible graphic
capabilities of the next generation consoles, the murky fog to the ominous
shadows of the town are brought to life like-never-before. The game features an
enhanced combat system that provides players with a wide array of attacks to use
against the monsters lurking throughout the town. Additionally, using the new,
enhanced third-person camera view, players search for an assortment of objects
and weapons to battle these terrifying creatures. All the horror Alex must face
is made even more frightening and realistic by an all-new soundtrack from
acclaimed series composer Akira Yamaoka.

"The next generation debut of Silent
Hill will have gamers on the edge of their seats as Silent Hill: Homecoming will
deliver a truly terrifying experience," said Anthony Crouts, Vice President of
Marketing for Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. "While the power of next-gen
consoles will make this the best looking game in the history of the franchise,
it is the foreboding storyline that makes this one of the scariest Silent Hill
releases ever."
